The second section gives a detailed explanation of how you performed your experiment. It is written in paragraph form and in the past tense. Do not number the steps or give directions. Report what you did. Assume that the reader knows nothing at all about the experiment. Write your procedure so that someone else could perform the experiment exactly the same way that you did. Use the procedure in your textbook or handout as a guide, but remeber that you may have differences from the written procedure that was given to you.
